Red, White and Blue Climbers

Climber's pot from above with False Indigo blooms to the right.

Today's pot was for the climbing plants.  I used Moon Flower this year. After reading about growing it with Morning Glory, I'm off to find a blue Morning Glory plant ready to go, grow and bloom.  I did add a Scarlet Runner Bean to the pot to attract hummingbirds.  The beans can be eaten when immature and used for dried beans at the end of the season.  If I find a blue Morning Glory, I'll have another red, white and blue planter: one on the deck and on just off the patio.

These pots are not climbers, but upright Zinnias.  They just fit in my decorative urns.  No planting up necessary!

Summer, we are ready for you--whatever you hold in store for us weatherwise!
